KAISER PRESENTS 2nd ANNUAL CITY VERSUS CITY COMPETITION FOR HEALTH



SOFITCITY BUILDS A FITTER CITY
Kaiser Permanente Presents 2nd Annual County Race



(Solano County, CA - September 28, 2013) Fitness challenges are hardly original, but a city versus city concept, just might be. Organizers of the SOFITCITY 5K/10K, presented by Kaiser Permanente, have launched new challenges for an even bigger celebration at the annual county competition walk/run event held in Fairfield, CA on Saturday, September 28, 2013.



SOFITCITY welcomes rival cities to compete for the largest number of finishers to win.  New this year is an Armed Services Challenge, Police versus Fire Department Challenge, a Mayor’s Cup award and a costume contest. In addition to live music, 5K and 10K Finishers can look forward to finisher medals at the conclusion of the race.

“What’s great about this concept is that it’s inclusive,” says race director, Todd Rewick. “It’s a party for folks who like live music and dancing, it’s a kid’s event for children fundraising for their schools, and it’s a championship event for runners here for the medal or seeking a title.”

“SOFITCITY was so much fun last year,” said Dilenna Harris, Kaiser Permanente Public Affairs Manager. “And we are proud to support the SOFITCITY mission to build a fitter Solano. We believe community-partnerships are the essence of a fitter community, and SOFITCITY is one of many local prevention-driven programs that we support.”

Funds raised from registration benefit the Solano County Library Foundation and other area nonprofits that promote fit minds and fit bodies for a fitter community.
